Lyrics:
The Death Of Queen Jane
Trad / Child #170
Queen Jane lay in labour for six weeks and more
The women grew weary and the midwife gave o'er
King Henry he was sent for; on horseback and feet
King Henry came to her in the time of her need
O Henry, good King Henry, if that you do be
Please pierce my side open and save my baby
Oh no, Jane, good Queen Jane, that never could be
I'd lose my sweet flower to save my baby
Queen Jane she turned over, she fell all in a swoon
Her side was pierced open and the baby was found
How bright was the morning, how yellow was the room
How costly the white robes Queen Jane was wrapped in
King Henry he grieved, he wrung his hands to their sore
The flower of England will never be no more
As sung by Joan Baez
